Luke's POV
I'm still wondering if she likes me. Maybe it's just puppy love and maybe it will go away soon! "This sucks!" I yelled as I kicked a rock. "Hey what's going on?" Daddy shouted back. I held my foot in pain trying not to cuss. "Aww nothing" I said as I looked down blushing. "It's a lady isn't it?" Daddy said as he laughed. I looked up at him in embarrassment. "Uhh no it ain't! How would you know?" I asked trying not to smile thinking about Amber. Daddy looked at me and said "Son, I know that face from anywhere! So.. Who is it?" I hid my face and mumbled "Nobody daddy.." He looked at me with a funny look. "It's Amber.. Isn't it? Well I wouldn't doubt it,Thomas, she's a nice little lady and you don't find many tomboys around here." I wasn't sure how he knew because at that time girls were all over me at school. I was the ladies man,but Amber has never showed any interest in me. "Yeah daddy,it's Amber." I said as he smiled at me and messed up my hair. "Well look over there." Daddy said as he pointed to Amber walking to Luke's house. He laughed as I fixed my hair really quick by licking my hand and rubbing it down. "Good Luck." He added.
"Hey Luke." She waved. "Uhh.. Hey Amber." I said as I kicked myself for sounding stupid. "So umm how has your day been?" I said again sounding as dumb as could be. "Good. What do you wanna do today?" She asked. I leaned against a board trying to be cool. "Well, we gotta round up some..."
*CRASH*
The board snapped before I could get done talking. I fell on my butt and felt myself getting all red. "Are you okay?" She said as she tried not to laugh. "Yeah.. Just testing how strong this board is. Now I know we can't put this on the barn." I said still blushing. She laughed so hard which made me laugh and before you knew it we were laughing so hard we couldn't breathe.
Amber's POV
After Luke fell it made me laugh so hard that I couldn't breathe. "What were you gonna say?" I asked. "Oh yeah. We gotta round up some calves to sell." He said still red. So we walked down to the pasture to got some horses to ride and round up the calves. When we got done we went to the barn and sat in some hay playing around in it. We got in the barn loft and relaxed there. I could see him looking at me with those big brown eyes and I could see his hand inching towards mine. I instantly knew what was going on and honestly... I don't mind!
Luke's POV
When I tried to make my move thoughts just ran through my head. "What if she doesn't like me like that? What if she thinks I'm dumb? Am I too friendly or mean? What would happen if something goes wrong?" These thoughts just ran through my head until I felt something touch my hand. I looked down and saw hers on mine. My heart jumped outta my chest as I gripped her hand in mine. All I could think about now is her pretty green eyes or her long brown wavy hair. It made me smile as I thought about her.
